Oggii turned a coin-sized sensor into daily clinical alerts for vets and pet owners. Our algorithms ran inside Zoetis's PetDialog+ and Elanco's platform, on 100,000 devices.
Oggii operated from 2013 to 2021. Its IP was acquired by Elanco.
Pain, arthritis, atopic dermatitis and otitis, spotted from behaviour.
Food, medical treatments and over-the-counter products matched to each dog.
An algorithm that could serve any smart device on the market.
Ten behaviours, recognised second by second from a collar.
Decompression, sampling-rate unification, axis alignment, SMOTE, 2–4–8–12 second moving windows.
From 100+ features down to the best set for each target behaviour.
Based on a pre-balanced matrix score for the best success rate.
A random forest of 30 decision trees, 17 levels deep, voting by majority.
The most probable path of a dog's behaviour, time-of-day dependent, with enhancement models.
Behaviour identification at 90% average accuracy: 24-hour values, night values, activities.
An independent team at vHive, the university's veterinary health innovation engine, checked Oggii against tagged video, second by second. Accuracy came in above 90%.
A dataset combining 50 years of dog data: what owners saw every day, what vets recorded, and what the collar measured.
Each day was labelled for background disease, the presence and type of symptoms, their severity and the vet's certainty. Vet AI learned from those days to identify, rate and report pain, arthritis, atopic dermatitis and otitis.
Oggii produced a daily, scored and categorised status for each dog, translated into plain-language messages for the vet and the owner.
Clinical alerts in the Zoetis PetDialog clinic dashboard, powered by Oggii.

Dogs that looked fine to their owners were brought in because the data showed otherwise.
